Indra Kumar’s ‘Total Dhamaal’ is having a golden run at the box office. The movie released on February 22 and it has pocketed a good amount on Day 16 as it stands at Rs 137.06 crore. Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt starrer ‘Gully Boy’ released one week prior to ‘Total Dhamaal’ i.e February 14 but collections wise, it stands at around Rs 136.36 crore. The irony is that ‘Gully Boy’ received rave reviews from the audiences and critics, whereas ‘Total Dhamaal’ got mixed and negative reviews. Still, the latter is doing a good business at the box office.
Trade analyst Taran Adarsh took to his Twitter handle to share the collections of ‘Total Dhamaal’. Here’s his tweet.
